Thinking about backing this project, but I am unsure... A friend I have vouched for this project, so I backed it

I actually backed it too at the $100 level, it was more of a splurge than a considered investment though :o, hope it works out

Anyone pick up a From the Vault: 20? I picked up from the FLGS at $200 US. I'm not going open for a bit, but unless speculator spiral the cost out of control in a couple of week, I'll get a bunch them into my cube.
hoping to pick up multiple fyndhorn elves and some of the other cards that'll get dropped on the internet after the massive unboxing of jace's.
I got FTV20 for MSRP, i was very very lucky. Some of these cards are going in my cube, not 100% sure which yet although I already threw in the kessig wolf run, green sun's zenith, tangle wire, and thran dynamo

Thanks to Eric's suggestion, I'm picking up a Hanweir Watchkeep. I completely ignored the card when it came out, but now that I think about it, it reminds me of a much, much better version of Wall of Wonder, which was long, long ago actually played in a couple of decks. This in turn reminded me that Browse used to be one of the better cards in Magic, but is now completely unplayable.
I didn't get my hands on a FTV20 for MSRP, but I bought some singles from the set that I wanted for my Modern-framed cube.
- Tangle Wire (wasn't available with modern frame before)
- Gilded Lotus (I like the new art!)
- Impulse (Modern Frame and very nice art)
- Cruel Ultimatum (Not really sure about the art, but I like that it depicts Nicol Bolas)
- Chainer's Edict (Currently I don't run this card, but since it's a flashback card and I run a selfmill theme there must be a spot for this one).

Just ordered Hymn to Tourach and Fyndhorn Elves from FTV:20 and the Judge Imperial Recruiter from eBay. Also a bunch more foil John Avon Zendikar lands.. nearly enough for my cube now 
I like creatures I guess.

- 4x Birthing Pod
- 4x Deathrite Shaman
- 1x Aetherling
- 1x Supreme Verdict
- 1x Progenitor Mimic
Is 4x Shaman all for cube? If so color me intrigued. That's my favorite card from the last year.

just the 2
I can finally contribute to the glorious materialism of this thread! I haven't played magic since July, but I finally managed to trade with some friends today and start sorting out my cube. Here's what I picked up:
3x Gravecrawler
Carrion Feeder
Mogg War Marshal
Hero of Oxid Ridge
Gift of Orzhova
Accorder Paladin
Galepowder Mage
Soltari Champion
Angel of Jubilation
Boar Umbra
Lotleth Troll
Call of the Herd
Riftwing Cloudskate
2x Champion of the Parish
And I'm currently putting an online order for
Goblin Bombardment
Markov Blademaster
Reckless Charge
Sarcomancy
Descendant of Kiyomaro
Jinxed Choker
The second Carrion Feeder
Daring Skyjek
Now to work out exactly how to add these while cutting the size of my cube down. What also bothers me is the amount my cube is going to look like "one of them Riptidelab cubes."

Damn kinds should get off my lawn! Back in my day, Morphling was the best creature around, and that's how we liked it! You kids don't even appreciate aggro these days. When I played, you needed to walk uphill in a blizzard with no shoes to have 1 drops, and then your opponent played CoP:Red! [/Oldman]

Starcity is running a sale on the about to rotate list, so some highlights:
also, a bunch of innistrad rares for the not-yet-built ISD cube I tinkered with
from a co-worker:

fixed for me

I just found a cheap Oath of Druids, and will test it to see how it works out in cube. I am a sucker for low-percentage build around cards in green, apparently, like Doubling Season and Birthing Pod...
